The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.81% during the forecast
period.

A recent study by Ford on the car-buying trends in 22 countries across
Europe revealed that over 10% of the buyers preferred a car with a
sunroof to a car without a sunroof. Having understood this recent trend,
various automobile manufacturers are now offering either built-in or
optional sunroof systems in mid or premium segment cars.

By material type, the global automotive sunroof market has been
segmented into two segments, namely, glass and fabric. The glass segment
is further segmented into pop-up type, built-in type, tilt n slide type,
top-mount type, panoramic type, and solar type. Similarly, the fabric
segment has been further segmented into two more sub-segments, namely,
foldable and removable types. The market for the glass sunroof segment
constituted over 70% of the overall sunroof market share. This is
further expected to reach over 80% by 2025, owing to the latest
innovations in the field of solar sunroofs for electric vehicles and
panoramic sunroof segments.

By vehicle type, this market has been segmented into hatchback cars,
sedan cars, premium cars, and others. Lately, the automotive vehicle
production has been growing rapidly with a substantial increase in the
global population and the rise in the number of households that possess
a vehicle. The demand for sunroof systems, as an after-sales market, has
witnessed a spike in popularity, especially among the younger population
in the Asian countries. Furthermore, the trend of preferring a car with
a sunroof rose to as high as 34% in 2016, which persuaded various
manufacturers to employ sunroofs as a standard or an optional entity.
